JP Nadda says Govt vigilant about quality of medicines
New Delhi: The Indian government reassured that it has a robust system in place for examining medicines and has taken necessary actions regarding recent concerns about the quality of certain cough syrups exported to Africa. Minister of Chemicals and Fertilizers J.P. Nadda provided these assurances while addressing the Lok Sabha.

Speaker Om Birla said there is a demand for medicines from India in all the countries he had been to as he has asked the government to increase exports of the medicines globally.
